Question

solve the literal equation for x.

Square root 3x + 2y +5x=4, for x

Answer 1

so x =4 right

Answer 2

3x + 2y +5x=4
8x = 4 - 2y
x = (4 - 2y)/8

x = 1/2 - (1/4)y

Answer 3

Just noticed the square root part
Of what are you taking the square root ?
You will need to use brackets,

e.g.
√(3x + 2y) + 5x = 4
or ...
√(3x) + 2y + 5x = 4
or

can you see the problem if you don't use brackets ??
